GIP in talks to buy Aligned Data Centers
BlackRock-owned Global Infrastructure Partners (GIP) is in talks to acquire Macquarie-backed Aligned Data Centers, two people familiar with the matter told Reuters on Friday.
The acquisition could value the data center operator at around $40 billion, one of the sources said.
The deal underscores surging investor interest in data centers that cater to the booming market for artificial intelligence tools and power their growing adoption across the globe.
